The Conran shop has nothing that you need but everything that you’d like to have!A modern museum with representative pieces from almost every design icon you’ve heard about in the past half century.Eames chairs, Starck’s fixtures, Alessi’s stainless – they’re all there. Of course, the time to go is during the sales in January and mid-summer.At all other times, it’s still worth browsing since it’s like a day out at a modern museum!

Best location: the flagship store at the Michelin House, 81 Fulham road
